A reusable stainless steel oil filter. Hmm, whats everyoneís opinion??
Would you be comfortable using this?
In my opinion at $100 Iím not sure about it, especially considering how much of a pain IMG_7864.JPGand messy cleaning it out would be, not to mention the cost of all the brake clean used.

Uh, what exactly is the point? An oil filter is like $8. If you changed your oil every 5000 miles that's over 60K miles before you break even on an oil filter that probably has worse filtration properties. Sounds like a terrible idea.

I'd compare it to the best paper tech, specifically, what micron size does it filter?
Regardless, I buy a box of Mahle at a time, about 6.xx each back when I got the box several years back, but I do low miles/year. So at 5k miles per change, 12 filters, 60k miles of filters for say $78 and I don't have to clean anything.
If you do a ton of miles and the specs are .. say 5 microns, might be worth it, but still, having to clean it every change, dunno I'd mess with it.
